Happy Birthday, Mom

How do I find the perfect wordsTo convey my thoughtsHow do I thank a mother For all the things she’s taught?I gaze in thoughtful wonderTo distant stars aboveAnd realize that motherIs another word for love

To tell the fullness of her worthIs like counting every starFor what is warmer than the hearthWhere loving mothers are?The greatest treasure of this landDoes not fill jeweled vaultsBut lies within a mother’s handAs she her God she exalts

How do I tell you, motherOf my deepest love for youOn earth there is no otherThat can fill the spot you doThere are no words to tell youBut I thank my God aboveAs I realize that motherIs another word for love
